ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Following worldwide progress in digital technology, the utilization of advanced technology to update the concept and mode of education has become an important way to improve the quality and scale of talent training. Adoption of virtual reality technology has a positive effect on dental education. Virtual reality technology has been introduced into Chinese dental education nearly 10 years ago, and a holistic teaching system that employs virtual simulation technology to assist instructors in teaching and students in learning has gradually been formed. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Based on the work of the West China School of Stomatology, Sichuan University, we introduced the necessity and advantages of the application of virtual simulation technology in talent training in dentistry and the status of this teaching system.RESULTS:
A virtual dental simulation teaching system was constructed and applied in China. Virtual reality technology was incorporated into the four elements of the teaching system. This reformed system carried out educational informatization in terms of the construction of a virtual simulation teaching platform, development of virtual simulation teaching resources, improvement of the student training model, and upgrading of teaching management.CONCLUSION:
The holistic teaching system implemented at the West China School of Stomatology, Sichuan University, highlights the successful incorporation of virtual reality technology into various aspects of dental education. The construction of this system reflects the deep integration of modern information technology and dental education, with the aim of helping dental educators promote teaching methods and management model in the future.
